About Mission Inn Resort & Club

The family-owned Mission Inn is one of Florida's friendliest and most value-forward resorts. With two golf courses, including the century-old El Campeon layout, it is an ideal setting for buddies trips and, at about 45 minutes from Orlando International Airport (MCO), remains convenient to reach from afar while removed from O-town's occasionally chaotic energy.

Nice experience

Someone met me at my car with a cart. Had a Saturday twilight rate of $49. Teed off 30 minutes early as a single and played in 3 hr 17 min. Good lies in the fairways and the greens held iron shots. The greens were consistent and putts rolled out nicely.

Heading back for another round next week!!

Great course

Enjoyed this course thoroughly. I want to play the Colinas course now. Course was well maintained and beautiful setting. I wouldn't pay $120 but it's definitely a nice country club type feel to it. Lots of water, creeks, tree lined fairways and fast greens.

Could have been Five Stars

This course is tough- narrow and long but still fair to everyone. I made the mistake of pulling driver out too many times- a good 235 yd strike will put you in scoring position on most par 4s- take the position over distance to score well. Greens were very good. The only issue was the clubhouse was closed- so no beer after the round and Mission Inn is kind of isolated so no real close option. If you are golfing here for the first time- bring some extra balls- anything off the fairway is a goner..

Challenging Course

Wide fairways except the par 3’s which are tight and new accurate shots. Long holes for Par 4’s but reachable Par 5’s course very well maintained. Enjoyed our round with no golfers in front we finished our round in 3 1/2 hours. Will definitely come back.

Pretty sad

As someone who loves the game as much as i do. It is heartbreaking to see such an amazing golf course neglected as badly as this one has been. I still enjoyed my round, but found myself imagining what the place must have looked like in years past. I heard the golf course is under new management, and really hope they can bring it back to what it deserves to be.

Final Vacation Round

We ended our vacation with a round at Las Colinas. Gentleman at bag drop was enthusiastic and efficient. Starter was engaged and got us off early. Weather was outstanding, mid sixties and sunny with light breeze. Course in pretty good first day of spring shape. Green #7 not so good, with outside rim grassless. Bunkers were full and raked. We enjoyed the drive between holes which are lined with trees, wetlands and beautiful greenery. Played a nice leisurely 4:20 pace, with no pushing or being pushed. Got the senior rate of $62 through course website which was reasonable. Be back next year.

Not Worth Playing as Poor Conditions

Mission Inn used to be one of my favorite local courses due to its outstanding course conditions, but unfortunately owing to change in course ownership Las Colinas is NOT WORTH PLAYING. Last month I sent a foursome of guests there and they were extremely disappointed in the decline since it has been an annual event for several years. Another group of golfing friends played an outing there and reported the same thing. Too bad this classic Florida golf course is being neglected.
